Detailed Implementation

[0039] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solution of the present invention, and should not be used to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0040] Example 1

[0041] like Figures 1-7 As shown, a parameter configuration method for a parallel system of grid-connected converters includes: obtaining the power frequency response transfer function of the grid-connected converter and the power frequency response transfer function of the grid-connected converter based on the small-signal model of the power frequency response of the parallel system of grid-connected converters; performing consistency construction on the power frequency response transfer function of the grid-connected converter and the power frequency response transfer function of the grid-connected converter to obtain the constructor function; and configuring the parameters of the phase-locked loop of the grid-connected converter according to the constructor function.

[0042] Based on the small-signal model of the power frequency response of parallel systems of grid-connected and grid-connected converters, the power frequency response transfer functions of the grid-connected and grid-connected converters are obtained. Figure 1 For the small-signal model of the power frequency response of a grid-connected converter system, the loop filter of its phase-locked loop is a first-order inertial element, i.e.:

[0043]

[0044] Among them, G LP (s) is the first-order inertial element of the phase-locked loop filter, s is the differential operator, and k p k is the proportionality coefficient. i is the integral coefficient.

[0045] According to the small-signal model of the power frequency response of a grid-connected converter system, the power frequency response transfer function of the grid-connected converter is:

[0046]

[0047] Among them, a i For the numerator coefficient of the transfer function, b iThe coefficients in the denominator of the transfer function are i=1,2,...n, where n is the capacity ratio of the grid-type converter to the grid-connected converter, and T is the transfer function coefficient. f The filtering time constant is For the output angular frequency of the grid-type converter, The rated angular frequency of the power grid. The virtual inertia coefficient for a grid-type converter. The damping coefficient of the grid-type converter. To match the virtual inertia coefficient of the grid converter, To match the damping coefficient of the grid-type converter, U pu This is the per-unit voltage value. For the active power of the load, k is the synchronization coefficient. p k is the proportionality coefficient. i Here, is the integral coefficient, m is the line impedance synchronization coefficient, and the superscript " "" indicates a small perturbation.

[0048] The transfer function is for a fourth-order system. Under ideal conditions, i.e., without considering the filtering stage, the power frequency response transfer function of the grid-type converter is:

[0049]

[0050] Similarly, the power frequency response transfer function of the grid converter is:

[0051]

[0052] in, To match the output angular frequency of the grid-type converter.

[0053] The transfer function is for a fourth-order system. Under ideal conditions, i.e., without considering the filtering stage, the power frequency response transfer function of the grid converter is:

[0054]

[0055] The power frequency response transfer function (PFRF) of the grid-connected converter and the parallel-connected converter are constructed to achieve consistency, resulting in the constructor. To achieve inertia power matching, i.e., power distribution according to capacity during disturbances, a distribution coefficient K needs to be added before the GFL of the parallel-connected converter. After adjustment, the small-signal PFRF model of the parallel-connected / parallel-connected converter system is as follows: Figure 2 As shown.

[0056] At this point, under ideal conditions, the power frequency response transfer functions of the two types of converters are as follows:

[0057] The power frequency response transfer function of the grid-type converter is adjusted as follows:

[0058]

[0059] The power frequency response transfer function of the grid converter is adjusted to...

[0060] .

[0061] Ideally, the denominators of the power frequency response transfer functions of the two types of converters are the same. To ensure consistency in their power frequency responses, the numerators of the transfer functions must be identical, i.e.:

[0062] make ,

[0063] This ensures that the power frequency response transfer function of the adjusted grid-type converter is consistent in form with that of the ground-type converter.

[0064] At this time, k p k i for:

[0065]

[0066] To achieve inertia-power matching, the active power reference value P also needs to be made... ref The response is a step signal, by Figure 2 It can be seen that, under ideal conditions, the load power P load To the active power reference value P ref The transfer function is:

[0067]

[0068] To make the active power reference value P ref The output is a step signal, i.e., P. load To P ref The transfer function should be:

[0069] ,

[0070] Where n is the capacity ratio of the grid-type converter to the grid-type converter, therefore, the virtual inertia parameter and the primary frequency regulation parameter satisfy:

[0071] .

[0072] Considering K=n+1, we obtain information about k. p and k i Constructor:

[0073] .

[0074] The parameters of the phase-locked loop of the grid converter are configured according to the constructor.

Figure 5 Bode plot of power frequency response for a grid-connected converter parallel system under non-ideal conditions. Relevant parameters are shown in Table 1. Among them, GFM-VSG is the virtual synchronous machine control for the grid-connected converter, and GFL-PLL... * The parameter configuration method described in this invention is used for the phase-locked loop control of the grid-connected converter. However, the GFL-PLL, which is used for the phase-locked loop control of the grid-connected converter, does not use the parameter configuration method described in this invention. Figure 4 It can be seen that, under ideal conditions, the parallel system using the parameter configuration method described above can achieve consistency in the power frequency response of the two types of converters, thereby realizing the matching control of inertial power.

[0077]

[0078] Depend on Figure 5 It can be seen that, if the filtering stage is considered, the power frequency response of the two types of converters in the system using the parameter configuration method of the present invention has a small difference, while in the parallel system without the parameter configuration method of the present invention, the power frequency response of the two types of converters has a large difference, which proves the effectiveness of the parameter configuration method of the present invention.

[0079] To further verify the effectiveness of the parameter configuration method of this invention, a simulation platform for a parallel system of grid-connected converters was built. Specific parameters are shown in Table 2. The capacity ratio of the two types of converters was set to 2:1. The operating condition was set as a load step disturbance, with an initial load of 2kW and a load step of 2kW. The simulation results are as follows: Figure 6 , Figure 7 As shown, in Figure 6 , Figure 7 In this context, GFM-VSG is the virtual synchronous machine control for grid-type converters, and GFL-PLL... * The parameter configuration method described in this invention is used for the phase-locked loop control of the grid-connected converter. However, the parameter configuration method described in this invention is not used for the phase-locked loop control of the GFL-PLL grid-connected converter.

[0081]

[0082] Depend on Figure 6 , Figure 7It can be seen that the power frequency response of the two types of converters in the parallel system using the parameter configuration method of the present invention is consistent, and the instantaneous power of the disturbance can be distributed according to the capacity, that is, the inertial power response is matched, which proves the effectiveness of the parameter configuration method of the present invention.

[0083] This invention derives the power frequency response transfer functions of grid-connected and grid-connected converters using a small-signal model of a parallel system of grid-connected and grid-connected converters. Then, based on these power frequency response transfer functions, it derives a phase-locked loop (PLL) parameter configuration method that enables consistent power frequency responses between the two types of converters. This allows for the distribution of instantaneous power during disturbances according to capacity, i.e., inertia power response matching; thus solving the problem of difficulty in matching inertia power in parallel systems of grid-connected and grid-connected converters.
